I don't have diabetes. To be honest I was actually wondering about vitamin c. I know I don't get enough of my diet and I don't take enough supplements. I'm considering taking a vitamin test just to see if that might be what's going on
I'm waiting results from my dermatologist, but I have a few spots that have just opened up on my lower legs. One was bleeding, another is almost at that point. Has anyone with celiac/gluten intolerance had any spots like that? The ones I have aren't big or painful, but any open wounds happening on their own is worrisome.
Thank you for the response. To be honest, my primary doctor believed I had celiac because I have all the symptoms. I was tested a few times as well as biopsy but I only had one marker flagged on the blood test, negative biopsy.
At times I have been very strict with the gluten-free diet, but I got discouraged because I was still having diarrhea and not...
Thank you. I'll check out that newbie section. I'm going to try to just focus on gluten and wheat for now. I try not to have much or any lactose though. I had my gluten-free breakfast sandwich today without toasting the bread lol. It wasn't horrible
Yeah, you could have said something like. "it would probably help to get a new toaster if you want to be totally gluten free and know for sure" or something. It did come off rude to just be like "read more".
Btw I'm honestly really down and frustrated, I'm looking for a place for support/people I can relate with. I feel like I could break down and start...
I tried really hard to eat gluten free for a while and used my original toaster for my gluten free waffles and bread. I didn't have anyone to tell me to GET A NEW TOASTER. I had 0 guidance from my doctor or anyone I know and honestly I've been confused to death about not just how to do this 100% but what to expect, how long to do it before seeing results...
Trying again on a strict gluten-free diet after giving up. Is it common to still have diarrhea, gas, bloating on gluten-free diet for a while? Last time I gave up because I still needed Imodium while eating gluten-free and felt frustrated. Can It take a few months? I was testing negative for celiac but I have all the symptoms of ncgi.
Should I get a...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone here went gluten free but still had symptoms, possibly from bacteria overgrowth and had relief after taking Xifaxan for that? My GI doc has me on that, about to start. Thanks for any feedback/stories.
Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find a previous post on my question. I most likely have non-celiac gluten sensitivity/intolerance. I haven't been eating gluten-free and ate a lot of gluten containing foods the last few weeks. I know everyone is different, but if you went a few weeks eating wheat foods, how long does your symptoms last once...
So I've posted a while back. I'm undiagnosed, been tested multiple times. I had one raised marker on a blood test I think a while back though. I've basically had IBS for over 12 years. My doc thought all my symptoms were celiac and after negative blood and endoscopy tests, he said I should still try the diet. Well, I've tried but I honestly haven't given...
I was going to post asking a similar question. I've probably been tested 3 or 4 times with all negative, i had one elevated marker before. I'm probably going to get tested again. Would you say it would be best to load up on wheat foods for the 12 weeks before a test, or just having a normal amount in the diet?
Thanks for the response. I was probably eating a normal diet when I had the tests. I did have one marker raised on a blood test, so not sure if that showed something or not. Yeah he thinks it's possible it could be an intolerance issue. I tried the diet before, but i fell off the wagon after a few weeks as I may have had symptoms and gave up. But then they...
Hi, I hope it's ok to post about this, I'm a newbie on the forum. I've had IBS for about 15 years, and have had tests for celiac (both blood and biopsy) turn out negative. However, I have a lot of the symptoms including diarrhea, anxiety/mood issues and I don't gain weight well. My Dr. said to try the diet anyways to see if it helps. His P.A. said it could...
